• Roberts wins Junior Sport Award!
  Kelsey-Lee Roberts has won the prestigious ActewAGL Shield for outstanding junior achievement in sport at the TVRUASC Sports Awards night held on Friday 19 February.
  
  Kelsey-Lee enjoyed a great year of Javelin throwing. A list of her achievements will be published here soon, along with a photograph from the awards night. She also received a $1000 scholarship from the club to help her with studies and the continuation of her sporting career. Continuation scholarships were received by Angeline Blackburn and Nick Buckland.
  
  
• Jessamy Hosking continues in VEADF scheme:
  Mountain runner Jessamy Hosking is now a 'GOLD' member of SCT's VEADF scheme for promising elite athletes. Jessamy's ambitions include representing Australia once again in the World Mountain Running Championships and in the Commonwealth Games (with the likely inclusion of mountain running as a sport in future games).
  
  
• Bonus Grant from the Vikings Club:
  Jane McGlew has been successful in applying for a $900 bonus grant from the Vikings Club. The money will be used to purchase new promotional 'feather-style' banners and a new 'hanging' banner for use at Fadden Pines, Interclub and other club activities.
  
  
• Travel and accommodation cheques processed:
  SCT has written travel assistance cheques for athletes that attended the All-Schools T&F Championships held in Hobart. They will be received by Anna McCormack, Natalie Tanks, Elizabeth Hosking and Greg Hosking.
  
  
• Nominations for the Australian Junior Championships:
  Any athletes wishing to attend the Australian Junior T&F Championships to be held in Sydney this March need to complete and return a nomination form. All athletes wanting to attend/be considered for selection/have made qualifiers - need to return the completed form to Cathy Tanks (Team Manager) by 13th February, the first day of ACT Championships. Cathy will be at the track on both days. We need to know who is actually committed to going and intending to compete in Sydney. While many will be selected, we can not assume that all will be attending. Generally, if we don’t receive a nomination form or contact from athletes we may not have the opportunity to chase individuals as there are far too many, and we will take it that people are not interested in going.
  
  The form also serves as the point of contact so that we can reach further selected athletes at the last minute after the second day of championships. Our team entries must reach Athletics Australia by 22nd February. As you may all realise with the second day of ACT champs on the 20th and our final team list needing to be in by 22nd does not leave us much time! This is why the nomination form is out now and is important that it is returned. Athletes must only put down what events they intend to do in Sydney (upon final confirmation from the selectors.) as this is what they will be entered into and charged for by Athletics Australia.
